You know I lost my job
And then I wrecked my car
I tried to walk it off
I didn't get to far
With these holes in my shoes
And the black cat blues
I called up my girl
I thought she'd understand
She left town the next day
With another man
Now what's a poor boy to do
When he's black cat blue
I used to think I was cool
Man I had it all
Well my, my, my
Look how the mighty fall
Now I got nothin' to lose
'Cept these black cat blues
Repeat third verse
I got the black cat blues
I got the black cat blues
I got the black cat blues
I got the black cat blues
Now what's a poor boy to do when he's black cat blue
Now what's a poor boy to do when he's black cat... blue
